A repentant humble father will be exalted in his house. Through much repentance, an adulterous father can bring his children back to him and gather his family.
Jesus said, “Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this Publican. I fast twice a week, I give thithes of all that I possess. And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes to heaven, but smite upon his breast, saying, God, be merciful to me a sinner. I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for everyone that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.”(Luke 18:10-14)
